Brief vom 25. Feb.1963 12.Avenue Montaigne
- mein Lieber,
Bitte seien Sie so gut und fragen genau wann und wo und was für eine Television Sendung von mir in Stockholm gezeigt wurde. Habe nähmlich nur einmal ein Lied für die "UNICEF" Wohltätigkeitsabend gesungen, das gefilmt wurde für Television in Düsseldorf. .... Ich sang ein Lied, das jetzt NO 1 in Deutschland ist, " Sag mir wo die Blumen sind" - ein Antikriegslied (eine Erfolgsplatte in Deutschland zu haben ist doch allerhand):.......nochmals tausend Grüsse MARLENE
